it is absolutely _not_ ok so yes you are wrong. Couple weeks ago I suggested[1] arming insurgents, training civilians, and sanctioning them so they can no longer fly to Malta & Cyprus to visit their offshore money.
But talk is cheap, violating international laws on engagement yourself and then pointing the finger at China, Russia or whatever country is hypocrite. In fact I wonder how can one suggest intervention fully knowing your own camp does the same shit. The level of entitlement in such an argument is pot-kettle-black insane.
So... you won't even try? That's the part I don't understand. An Irish airliner got forced down in an act of war so Lukashenko could kidnap an enemy, and everyone is all "But the fucking Americans amiright?"
Is it bad or not? The distinct impression that I get is that you kinda think this kidnapping was OK, and the US makes a convenient excuse. Please tell me I'm wrong.
